Where/when: Invesco Field, 8 p.m. (moves to 8:30 if World Series is over)

TV: ESPN

Packers: They used the bye week to work on a couple of problem areas - the running game and inability to stop tight ends. At his current rate, QB Brett Favre will throw well over 600 passes, unless they can suddenly find a runner.

Broncos: That was a desperately needed win last Sunday, and the defense had its best performance of the year, constantly flushing Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger.

Streak: Packers +1, Broncos +1.

Sizing it up: Can Denver sustain the defense it showed vs. Pittsburgh? There are some similarities between Favre and Roethlisberger, and Denver will need to pass rush just as hard as it did last Sunday.
